They used to put the new Featured Contributor and the bio in the scroller on the upper right with other announcements, tips, etc. They need to do that again as it took me a while to find where the bio was hidden. Congrats, Mark. Enjoy the perks!

Did you really get a mug? I've been dying to get a present from Upwork for years, but they don't seem to find a good enough reason to send me a present.

I got a vacuum insulated water bottle. Pretty useful, honestly.

Congrats, Mark! Enjoy the scores of PM's from people thinking you have back-end access to Upwork and can solve their every issue!

I have already had a few (but I had a few before that too). I also had one guy who said he read all my stuff and wanted me to lend my voice to the fight against paid connects. I didn't have the heart to tell him he must not be reading very closely. I think I may ignore them for the most part...might get me fired from UW though.

I am sure though you are glad to be down from there and I honestly considered not doing it for that reason alone.

Lol, it might be that. I have drank tea out of it for two days...it's a great mug actually. You might have meant more interesting beverages (cocoa?).

I also got a shirt and a notepad.

Well, I don't know, you can put flowers in your mug, or pencils, or coins. If you have hamsters, you can put the mug in the cage, the'll hide their food in it. There are lots of possibles uses for a mug.

Wow! A shirt and a notepad! Now, I'm jealous! Was it a real shirt or a t-shirt? Did they ask you what size you wear or did they just send you a ridiculously tiny or huge shirt?

T-shirt. They did not ask my size but they sent X-Large so depending on the person it could be tiny or huge.
